[Dr Dre]
Ya'll know me still the same ol' G
But I been low key
Hated on by most these s
Wit no cheese, no deals and no G's, no wheels and no keys
No boats, no snowmobiles and no ski's
Mad at me cause
I can finally afford to provide my family wit groceries
Got a crib wit a studio and it's all full of tracks
To add to the wall full of plaques
Hangin up in the office in back of my house like trophies
But ya'll think I'm gonna let my dough freeze
Ho Please
You better bow down on both knees
Who you think taught you to smoke trees
Who you think brought you the o' G's
Eazy-E's Ice Cube's and D.O.C's and Snoop D O double G's
And a group that said mutha*** the police
Gave you a tape full of dope beats
The bomb weed stroll through in you hood
And when your album sales wasn't doin too good
Who's the doc that he told you to go see
Ya'll better listen up closely
All you s that said that I turned pop
Or the Firm flop
ya'll are the reason Dre ain't been getting no sleep
So *** ya'll all of ya'll
If ya'll don't like me blow me
Ya'll are gonna keep ***in around wit me
And turn me back to the old me
[chorus x2 - Eminem]
Nowadays everybody wanna talk like they got something to say
But nothin comes out when they move they lips
Just a buncha gibberish
And mutha***as act like they forgot about Dre
[Eminem]
So what do you say to somebody you hate
Or anybody tryna bring trouble your way
Wanna resolve things in a bloodier way
Just study your tape of NWA.
One day I was walkin by
Wit a walkmen on
When I caught a guy givin me an awkward eye
And strangled him off in the parkin lot wit his Karl Kani
I don't give a *** if it's dark or not
I'm harder than me tryna park a Dodge
But I'm drunk as ***
Right next to a humungous truck in a two car garage
Hoppin out wit two broken legs tryna walk it off
*** you too b**ch call the cops
I'ma kill you and them loud ass mutha***in barkin dogs
And when the cops came through
Me and Dre stood next to a burnt down house
Wit a can full of gas and a hand full of matches
And still one found out
Startin today and tomorrows the new
And I'm still loco and nuts
To choke you to death wit a Charleston chew
[Record scratch]
Slim shady hotter then a set of twin babies
In a Mercedes Benz wit the windows up
And the temp goes up to the mid 80's
Callin men ladies
Sorry Doc but I been crazy
There is no way that you can save me
It's ok go with him Hailey
[chorus x2]
[Dr Dre]
If it was up to me
You mutha***as would stop comin up to me
Wit your hands out lookin up to me
Like you want somethin free
When my last cd was out you wasn't bumpin me
But now that I got this little company
Everybody wanna come to me like it was some disease
But you won't get a crumb from me
Cause I'm from the streets of
I told em all
All them little gangstas
Who you think helped mold 'em all
Now you wanna run around and talk about guns
Like I ain't got none
What you think I sold 'em all
Cause I stay well off
Now all I get is hate mail all day sayin Dre fell off
What cause I been in the lab wit a pen and a pad
Tryna get this *** label off
I ain't havin that
This is the millenium of Aftermath
It ain't gonna be nothin after that
So give me one more platinum plaque and *** rap
You can have it back
So where's all the mad rappers at
It's like a jungle in this habitat
But all you savage cats
Knew that I was strapped wit gats
When you were cuddled wit cabbage patch
[Chorus x3]

[Verse 1]
G Bm
I remember when rock was young, me and Susie had so much fun
C D
Holding hands and skimmin' stones had a old gold Chevy & a place of my own

But the biggest kick I ever got was doin' a thing called the Crocodile Rock
C D
While the other kids were rockin' 'round the clock we were hoppin' and
boppin' to the Crocodile Rock, well
[Chorus]
Em A7
Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your feet just can't keep still

I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.

[Verse 2]
G Bm
But the years went by and rock just died, Susie went and left me for some foreign guy,
C D
Long nights cryin' by the record machine dreamin' of my Chevy & my old blue jeans but they'll
G Bm
Never kill the thrills we got burnin' up to the Crocodile Rock,
C D
Learning fast as the weeks went past, we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last, well
[Chorus]
Em A7
Crocodile Rockin' is something shockin' when your feet just can't keep still
D7 G
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will.

We teach girls to shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller
C#m D
We say to girls You can have ambition. But not too much
C#m D
You should aim to be successful. But not too successful Otherwise you will threaten the man.
C#m D
Because I am female I am expected to aspire to marriage
C#m D
I am expected to make my life choices always keeping in mind that marriage is the most important
C#m D
Now marriage can be a source of. Joy and love and mutual support
C#m D
But why do we teach girls to aspire to marriage and we don't teach boys the same?
C#m D
We raise girls to each other as competitors, not for jobs or for accomplishments, which
I think can be a good thing
C#m D
But for the attention of men. We teach girls that they cannot be sexual beings, in the
way that boys are

CHORUS-
If you had my love
And I gave you all my trust
Would you comfort me
And if somehow you knew that your love would be untrue
Would you lie to me
And call me baby
Verse
Now if I gave you me, this is how it's got to be
First of all I won't take you cheatin' on me
Tell me who can I trust if I can't trust in you
And I refuse to let you play me for a fool
You said that we could possibly spend eternity
See that's what you told me (that's what you said)
But if you want me
You have to be fulfilling all my dreams
(If you really want me babe)
CHORUS
Verse
Said you want my love and you've got to have it all
But first there are some things you need to know
If you want to live
With all I have to give
I need to feel true love
Or it's got to end, yeah
I don't want you
Trying to get with me
And I end up unhappy
(Don't need the hurt and I don't need the pain)
So before I do
Give myself to you
I have to know the truth
(If I spend my life with you)

And when you're out there without careYeah, I was out of touch
But it wasn't because I didn't know enoughI just knew too much
Chorus:
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Possibly
Verse 2:
And I hope that you are having the time of your life
But think twice, that's my only advice
Come on now, who do you, who do you, who do you
Who do you think you are Ha ha ha, bless your soul
You really think you're in control
Chorus:
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me
Verse 3:
My heroes had the heart to lose their lives out on the limb
And all I remember is thinking I want to be like them
Ever since I was little Ever since I was little it looked like fun
And it's no coincidence I've come And I can die when I'm done

Let's go, let's give it a whirl
See, it appears to me
You like the way I move
I tell you what I'm gon' do
Pull you close to share my groove
So you grab your girls and you grab a couple more
And you all could meet me in the middle of the floor
Said the air is thick, it's smellin' right
So you pass to the left, then you sail to the right

She's up all night 'til the sun
I'm up all night to get some
She's up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky
We're up all night 'til the sun
We're up all night to get some

We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky

We're up all night to get lucky
The present has no reason
Your gift keeps on giving
What is this I'm feeling?
If you wanna leave I'm with it, ah
We've come too far
To give up who we are
So let's raise the bar
And our cups to the stars
She's up all night 'til the sun
I'm up all night to get some
She's up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky
We're up all night 'til the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky
We're up all night to get lucky

1) She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes.
G Bm G
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies.
A7 D A7 F#
And she only reveals what she wants you to see.
Bm G A7 D
She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me.
Bm E7 A F#m
CHORUS - Ohhh... she takes care of herself.
D G Em A7 D
She can wait if she wants, she's ahead of her time.
Dm G7 C Am
Ohhh... and she never gives out,
Bb E E7 A
and she never gives in, she just changes her mind.
2) She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you.
She can ask for the truth, but she'll never believe.
And she'll take what you give her as long it's free.
She steals like a thief, but she's always a woman to me.
CHORUS
3) And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden.
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding.
But she brings out the best and the worst you can be.
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a women to me.
CHORUS
4) She's frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel.
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool.
But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree.
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you,
but she's always a woman to me.

Runaway train never going back

Wrong way on a one way track

Seems like I should be getting somewhere

Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Got a ticket for a runaway train

Like a madman laughing at the rain

Little out of touch little insane

It's just easier than dealing with the pain

Runaway train never going back

Wrong way on a one way track

Seems like I should be getting somewhere

Somehow I'm neither here nor there

Runaway train never coming back

Runaway train tearing up the track

Runaway train burning in my veins

Id runaway but it always seems the same. Repeat

(Somethin' that I can't say is one and the same)
Ever since you told me
(only room for two, I've been makin' less room for you)
Only God can hold me
(judge me, the only Man that help me is above me, holla)
I met so many men and
It's like they?re all the same
My appetite for lovin'
Is now my hunger pain
And when I'm feelin' sexy
Who's gonna comfort
My only problem is
Their insecurity

Cause I'm real (The way you stare, the way you look, your style, your hair)
Cause I'm real (The way you smile, the way you smell, it drives me wild)
Cause I'm real And I can't go on without you
Girl, I've been thinkin' bout this relationship And I wanna know
is this as good as it gets Cause we've been through
the worst times and the best times
But it was our time, even if it?s part-time
My baby lookin' at me, smilin' at me, laughin' like we wasn't happy
But not knowin', ever growin' and we're gettin' married
Hard lovin' and straight thuggin'
, I ain't doin' this for nuttin'
hoppin', poppin, let's ride up in the Benz
Hair blowin' in the wind, sun glistenin' off my skin, hey
and I'm nasty, and you know me
But you still don't mess with your baby
BRIDGE
CHORUS 2
Now people lovin' me and hatin' me and treatin' me ungratefully
But not knowin' that they ain't makin' or breakin' me
My life I live it to the limit and I love it
Now I can breathe again, baby, I can breathe again
people screamin' what the deal with you and so and so
I tell them es my z but they don't hear me though
I live my life to the limit and I love it
Now I could breathe again, baby, I could breathe again

I hold on so nervously

To me and my drink
I wish it was cooling me

But so far, has not been good

It's been shitty
And I feel awkward, as I should

This club has got to be

The most pretentious thing
Since I thought you and me

Well I am imagining

A dark lit place

Or your place or my place
CHORUS

Well I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you

I want to make you move

Because you're standing still

If your body matches
What your eyes can do

You'll probably move right through
G Em
Me on my way to you
VERSE (same with 1st verse)
I hold out for one more drink
Before I think
I'm looking too desperately
But so far has not been fun
I should just stay home
If one thing really means one
This club will hopefully
Be closed in three weeks
That would be cool with me
Well I'm still imagining
A dark lit place
Or your place or my place
CHORUS
Well, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
We'll, I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
I'm not paralyzed
But, I seem to be struck by you
I want to make you move
Because you're standing still
If your body matches
What your eyes can do
You'll probably move right through
Me on my way to you
You'll probably move right through

Am
We do not exist in
G
Any other instant
Dm
Here in this dimension
F
You and I are meant to be
Am
I have waited lifetimes to find you
G
Now that you're here
I can remind you
Dm
Of the things you've been dreamin'
Times two
F
I promise you
Am
If you just give me 24
G
Man, all I need is 24 hours
Dm
I promise you'll want plenty more
F
You'll probably be with it forever
Am G
So how does it sound
Us on the ground
Dm F
Giving you my love?
Am G
There's no place quite like here
Dm
There's no better time than now
F
You gotta stay ready
Am G
There's no place quite like here
Dm
There's no better time than now
F
That's why I stay ready
(continue playing Am G Dm F)
Tell me find your spot with the warning that I might slip
And when you climb on top that's the ultimate road trip
Ride on my like your Pac got me thinkin' it's 96'
I can rap on some nineties shit, wrap your leggings around my hip
I'm so hip to it tourists want to come speculate
But if I stay monogamous promise this kiss will always taste like candy
And yea, it's obvious momma now probably can't stand me
I'm sure they're tired of this look that you have when you're antsy
We gon' fuck around (Mm) we gon' fuck around
And triple through triplets of babies right now
And that might break the record and no, that don't mean you're fertile
That means we're fucking reckless, plus we don't use protection
I find myself reading old text messages when I'm bored
We find ourselves sexting 'til that connection is restored
I know that sounds immature, but if we never grow up
Then I wish you good luck on the seas that's inside this wall
Am
Come to me
Come, come to me
G
Look at what you've done to me
You put a gun to me
Dm
Then you brought the sun to me
Shine like blood diamonds
F
Learning to have patience
Only cause you are timeless
Am
The universe energy doesn't lie
G
And this chemistry is infinity at a million
Times
Dm
I wrote a million rhymes to scrabble your
Star power
F
Now the 24 bars, you get 24 hours
Am
All that I know is right now
G
Nothing's for sure but, right now
Dm F
Gotta get yours like, right now, right now
Am
All that I know is right now
G
Nothing's for sure but, right now
Dm F
Gotta get yours like, right now, right now

Listen to the song for rhythm and the layout of the song. Ive tried to tab out the
as best as i could and hope its clear enough to understand.
Lyrics-
said a hip hop
the hippie the hippie
to the hip hip hop, a you dont stop the rock it
to the bang bang boogie, say up jumped the boogie
to the rhythm of the boogie, the beat
now what you hear is not a test--i'm rappin to the beat
and me, the groove, and my friends are gonna try to move your feet
see i am wonder mike and i like to say hello
to the black, to the white, the red, and the brown, the purple and yellow
but first i gotta bang bang the boogie to the boogie
say up jump the boogie to the bang bang boogie
let's rock, you dont stop
rock the riddle that will make your body rock
well so far you've heard my voice but i brought two friends along
and next on the mike is my man hank
come on, hank, sing that song
check it out, i'm the c-a-s-an-the-o-v-a
and the rest is f-l-y
ya see i go by the code of the doctor of the mix
and these reasons i'll tell ya why
ya see i'm six foot one and i'm tons of fun
and i dress to a T
ya see i got more clothes than muhammad ali and i dress so viciously
i got bodyguards, i got two big cars
that definitely ain't the wack
i got a lincoln continental and a sunroof cadillac
so after school, i take a dip in the pool
which really is on the wall
i got a color tv so i can see
the knicks play basketball
hear me talkin bout checkbooks, credit cards
more money than a sucker could ever spend
but i wouldnt give a sucker or a bum from the rucker
not a dime till i made it again
everybody go, hotel motel
what you're gonna do today (say what)
cause i'm going to get a fly girl, gonna get some spanking drive off off in a fresh oj.
go hotel, motel, holiday inn
say if your girl starts actin up, then you take her friend
master g, my mellow
its on you so what you gonna do
well it's on n on n on on n on
the beat dont stop until the break of dawn
i said m-a-s, t-e-r, a g with a double e
i said i go by the unforgettable name
of the man they call the master gee
well, my name is known all over the world
by all the foxy ladies and the pretty girls
i'm goin down in history
as the baddest rapper there ever could be
now i'm feelin the highs and ya feelin the lows
the beat starts gettin into your toes
ya start poppin ya fingers and stompin your feet

and when the sucker mc's try to prove a point
[ Tab from- http://www.guitaretab.com/t/the-sugarhill-gang/128630.html ]
we're treacherous trio, we're the serious joint
a from sun to sun and from day to day
i sit down and write a brand new rhyme
because they say that miracles never cease
i've created a devastating masterpiece
i'm gonna rock the mike till you cant resist
everybody, i say it goes like this
well i was comin home late one dark afternoon
a reporter stopped me for a interview
she said she's heard stories and she's heard fables
that i'm vicious on the mike and the turntable
this young reporter i did adore
so i rocked some vicious rhymes like i never did before
she said damn fly guy im in love with you
the casanova legend must have been true
i said by the way baby what's your name
said i go by the name of lois lane
and you could be my boyfiend you surely can
just let me quit my boyfriend called superman
i said he's a fairy i do suppoose
flyin through the air in pantyhose
he may be very sexy or even cute
but he looks like a sucker in a blue and red suit
i said you need a man who's got finesse
and his whole name across his chest
he may be able to fly all through the night
but can he rock a party til the early light
he cant satisfy you with his little worm
but i can bust you out with my super sperm
i go do it, i go do it, i go do it, do it , do it
an i'm here an i'm there i'm big bang hank, im everywhere
just throw your hands up in the air
and party hardy like you just dont care
let's do it don't stop yall a tick a tock yall you don't stop
go hotel motel what you gonna do today (say what)
im gonna get a fly girl gonna get some spank drive off in a def oj
everybody go hotel motel holiday inn
you say if your girl starts actin up then you take her friend
i say skip, dive, what can i say
i can't fit em all inside my oj
so i just take half and bust them out
i give the rest to master gee so he could shock the house
it was twelve o'clock one friday night
i was rockin to the beat and feelin all right
everybody was dancin on the floor
doin all the things they never did before
and then this fly fly girl with a sexy lean
she came into the bar, she came into the scene
she traveled deeper inside the room
all the fellas checked out her white sasoons
she came up to the table, looked into my eyes
then she turned around and shook her behind
so i said to myself, its time for me to release
my vicious rhyme i call my masterpiece
and now people in the house this is just for you
a little rap to make you boogaloo
now the group ya hear is called phase two
and let me tell ya somethin we're a hell of a crew
once a week we're on the street
just a-cuttin' the jams and making it free
for you to party ya got to have the movies
so we'll get right down and give you the groove
for you to dance you gotta get hype
so we'll get right down for you tonight
now the system's on and the girls are there
ya definitely have a rockin affair
but let me tell ya somethin there's still one fact
and to have a party ya got to have a rap
so when the party's over you're makin it home
and tryin to sleep before the break of dawn
and while ya sleepin ya start to dream
and thinkin how ya danced on the disco scene
my name appears in your mind
yeah, a name you know that was right on time
it was phase two just a doin a do
rockin ya down cause ya know we could
to the rhythm of the beat that makes ya freak
come alive girls get on your feet
to the rhythm of the beat to the beat the beat
to the double beat beat that it makes ya freak
to the rhythm of the beat that says ya go on
on n on into the break of dawn
now i got a man comin on right now
he's guaranteed to throw down
he goes by the name of wonder mike
come on wonder mike do what ya like
i say a can of beer that's sweeter than honey
like a millionaire that has no money
like a rainy day that is not wet
like a gamblin fiend that does not bet
like dracula with out his fangs
like the boogie to the boogie without the boogie bang
like collard greens that dont taste good
like a tree that's not made out of wood
like goin up and not comin down
is just like the beat without the sound no sound
to the beat beat, ya do the freak
everybody just rock and dance to the beat
have you ever went over a friends house to eat
and the food just ain't no good
i mean the macaroni's soggy the peas are mushed
and the chicken tastes like wood
so you try to play it off like you think you can
by sayin that youre full
and then your friend says momma he's just being polite
he ain't finished uh uh that's bull
so your heart starts pumpin and you think of a lie
and you say that you already ate
and your friend says man there's plenty of food
so you pile some more on your plate
while the stinky foods steamin your mind starts to dreamin
of the moment that it's time to leave
and then you look at your plate and your chickens slowly rottin
into something that looks like cheese
oh so you say that's it i got to leave this place
i dont care what these people think
im just sittin here makin myself nauseous
with this ugly food that stinks
so you bust out the door while its still closed
still sick from the food you ate
and then you run to the store for quick relief
from a bottle of kaopectate
and then you call your friend two weeks later
to see how he has been
and he says i understand about the food
baby bubbah but we're still friends
with a hip hop the hippie to the hippie
the hip hip a hop a you don't stop the rockin
to the bang bang boogie
say up jump the boogie to the rhythm of the boogie the beat
i say hank can ya rock
can ya rock to the rhythm that just don't stop
can ya hip me to the shoobie doo
i said come on make the make the people move
i go to the halls and then ring the bell
because i am the man with the clientele
and if ya ask me why i rock so well
a big bang, i got clientele
and from the time i was only six years old
i never forgot what i was told
it was the best advice that i ever had
it came from my wise dear old dad
he said sit down punk i wanna talk to you
and don't say a word until im through
now there's a time to laugh a time to cry
a time to live and a time to die
a time to break and a time to chill
to act civilized or act real ill
but whatever ya do in your lifetime
ya never let a mc steal your rhyme
so from six to six til this very day
ill always remember what he had to say
so when the sucker mc's try to chump my style
i let them know that i'm versatile
i got style finesse and a little black book
that's filled with rhymes and i know you wanna look
but the thing that separates you from me
and that's called originality
because my rhymes are on from what you heard
i didnt even bite and not a go word
and i say a little more later on tonight
so the suker mc's can bite all night
a tick a tock yall a beat beat yall
a lets rock yall ya don't stop

First things first I'ma say all the words inside my head
I'm fired up and tired of The way that things have been, oh-ooh

I was broken from a young age Taking my sulkin' to the masses
Writing my poems for the few That look at me, took to me, shook at me, feelin' me
Singing from heartache from the pain Taking my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain Seeing the beauty through the...
[Chorus]
Pain! You made me a, you made me a Believer, believer
Pain! You break me down and build me up Believer, believer
Pain! Oh, let the bullets fly, oh, let them rain
My life, my love, my drive, it came from…
Pain! You made me a, you made me a Believer, believer

Third things third Send a prayer to the ones up above
All the hate that you've heard Has turned your spirit to a dove, oh-ooh
Your spirit up above, oh-ooh

I was chokin' in the crowd Building my rain up in the cloud
Falling like ashes to the ground Hoping my feelings, they would drown
But they never did, ever lived, ebbin' and flowin'
Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open and rained down
It rained down, like…

Last things lastBy the grace of the fire and the flames
You're the face of the futureThe blood in my veins, oh-ooh

Inhibited, limited 'til it broke open and rained down It rained down, like…

Girls chase boys chase girls
Repeat same four chords throughout the song
I'm a little let down but I'm not dead
There's a little bit more that has to be said
You played me now I play you too
Let's just call it over
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Chase girls, chase boys, chase boys, chase girls
I'm a little bit home but I'm not there yet
It's one to forgive but it's hard to forget
Don't call me, I won't call you too
Let's just call it over
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing
Girls chase boys chase girls
Chase girls, chase boys, chase boys, chase girls
I got two hands, one beating heart
And I'll be alright
I'm gonna be alright
Yeah I got two hands, one beating heart
And I'll be alright
I'm gonna be alright
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Let's not make it harder than it has to be

Oh everybody loves you baby)
All the broken hearts in the world still beat
Let's not make it harder than it has to be
Ohh, it's all the same thing

Oh, my, god. Becky, look at her butt.
It is so big. [scoff] She looks like,
one of those rap guys' girlfriends.
But, you know, who understands those rap guys? *scoff*
They only talk to her, because,
she looks like a total prostitute, 'kay?
[bass ostinato]
I mean, her butt, is just so big.
I can't believe it's just so round, it's like,
out there, I mean - gross. Look!
She's just so ... black!
Cm
I like big butts and I can not lie
You other brothers can't deny
That when a girl walks in with an itty bitty waist
And a round thing in your face
You get sprung, wanna pull out your tough
'Cause you notice that butt was stuffed
Deep in the jeans she's wearing
I'm hooked and I can't stop staring
Oh baby, I wanna get with you
And take your picture
My homeboys tried to warn me
But that butt you got makes me so horny
Ooh, Rump-o'-smooth-skin
You say you wanna get in my Benz?
Well, use me, use me
'Cause you ain't that average groupie
I've seen them dancin'
To hell with romancin'
She's sweat, wet,
Got it goin' like a turbo 'Vette
I'm tired of magazines
Sayin' flat butts are the thing
Take the average black man and ask him that
She gotta pack much back
So, fellas! (Yeah!) Fellas! (Yeah!)
Has your girlfriend got the butt? (Hell yeah!)
Tell 'em to shake it! (Shake it!) Shake it! (Shake it!)
Shake that healthy butt!
Baby got back!
(LA face with Oakland booty)

Baby got back!
[Sir Mix-a-Lot]

I like 'em round, and big
And when I'm throwin' a gig
I just can't help myself, I'm actin' like an animal
Now here's my scandal
I wanna get you home
And ugh, double-up, ugh, ugh
I ain't talkin' bout Playboy
'Cause silicone parts are made for toys
I want 'em real thick and juicy
So find that juicy double
Mix-a-Lot's in trouble
Beggin' for a piece of that bubble
So I'm lookin' at rock videos
Knock-kneeded bimbos walkin' like hoes
You can have them bimbos
I'll keep my women like Flo Jo
A word to the thick soul sisters, I wanna get with ya
I won't cuss or hit ya
But I gotta be straight when I say I wanna *fuck*
Till the break of dawn
Baby got it goin' on
A lot of simps won't like this song
'Cause them punks like to hit it and quit it
And I'd rather stay and play
'Cause I'm long, and I'm strong
And I'm down to get the friction on
So, ladies! {Yeah!} Ladies! {Yeah}
If you wanna roll in my Mercedes {Yeah!}
Then turn around! Stick it out!
Even white boys got to shout
Baby got back!
Cm
Baby got back!
Yeah, baby ... when it comes to females, Cosmo ain't got nothin'
to do with my selection. 36-24-36? Ha ha, only if she's 5'3.
Cm
So your girlfriend rolls a Honda, playin' workout tapes by Fonda
But Fonda ain't got a motor in the back of her Honda
My anaconda don't want none
Unless you've got buns, hun
You can do side bends or sit-ups,
But please don't lose that butt
Some brothers wanna play that hard role
And tell you that the butt ain't gold
So they toss it and leave it
And I pull up quick to retrieve it
So Cosmo says you're fat
Well I ain't down with that!
'Cause your waist is small and your curves are kickin'
And I'm thinkin' bout stickin'
To the beanpole dames in the magazines-
You ain't it, Miss Thing!
Give me a sister, I can't resist her
Red beans and rice didn't miss her
Some knucklehead tried to dis
'Cause his girls are on my list
He had game but he chose to hit 'em
And I pull up quick to get wit 'em
So ladies, if the butt is round,
And you want a triple X throw down,
Dial 1-900-MIXALOT
And kick them nasty thoughts
Baby got back!

Is happy with a good guy
But Ive been drinking so much
That Ima call her anyway and say
F-ck that that you love so bad
I know you still think about the times we had
I say f-ck that that you think you found
And since you picked up I know hes not around
Im just sayin, you could do better
Tell me have you heard that lately?
Im just sayin you could do better
And Ill start hatin, only if you make me
Uh, cups of the XO
All my people been here
I see all of her friends here
Guess she dont have the time to kick it no more
Flights in the morning
What you doing thats so important?
Ive been drinking so much
That Ima call you anyway and say
F-ck that that you love so bad
I know you still think about the times we had
I say f-ck that that you think you found
And since you picked up I know hes not around
Im just sayin, you could do better
Tell me have you heard that lately
Im just sayin you could do better
And Ill start hatin, only if you make me
I think Im addicted to naked pictures
And sittin talkin bout es
that we almost had
I dont think Im concious of making monsters
Outta the women that I sponsor til it all goes bad
But shit its all good
We threw a party, yeh we threw a party
es came over, yeh, we threw a party
I was just calling cause they were just leaving
Talk to me please, dont have much to believe in
I need you right now, are you down to listen to me?
Too many drinks have been given to me
I got some women thats living off me
Paid for their flights and hotels Im ashamed
Bet that you know them, I wont say no names
After a while girl they all seem the same
Ive had sex four times this week Ill explain
Having a hard time adjusting to fame
Sprite in that mixture, Ive been talking crazy girl
Im lucky that you picked up
Lucky that you stayed on
I need someone to put this weight on
Im just sayin, you could do better
Tell me have you heard that lately
Im just sayin you could do better
And Ill start hatin, only if you make me
Just throw up while I hold your hair back
Her white friend said you s crazy
I hope no-one heard that
I hope no-one heard that
Cause if they did, we gon be in some trouble

But all the praying just ain't helping at all

So he goes out and he makes his money the best way he knows how

One day he goes and takes a glimpse in the mirror

Seldom praise Him for the sunny days

And like His promise is true

Only my faith can undo
The many chances I blew

To bring my life to anew
Clear blue and unconditional skies

Have dried the tears from my eyes
No more lonely cries

My only bleedin' hope
Is for the folk who can't cope

With such an endurin' pain
That it keeps 'em in the pourin' rain

Who's to blame for tootin' 'caine into your own vein?
A#
What a shame you shoot and aim for someone else's brain

You claim the insane and name this day in time

[Verse 1]
Em D6/9
On the first part of the journey
Em D6/9
I was looking at all the life
Em D6/9
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D6/9
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D6/9
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
Em D6/9
And the sky with no clouds
Em D6/9
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
Em D6/9
But the air was full of sound
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain
Em9 Dmaj9
In the desert you can remember your name
Em9 Dmaj9
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
[Verse 2]
Em D6/9
After two days in the desert sun
Em D6/9
My skin began to turn red
Em D6/9
After three days in the desert fun
Em D6/9
I was looking at a river bed
Em D6/9
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Em D6/9
Made me sad to think it was dead
[Chorus]
Em9 Dmaj9
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name
Em9 Dmaj9
It felt good to be out of the rain
Em9 Dmaj9
In the desert you can remember your name

'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain

La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
Em9 Dmaj9
La, la, la lala la la la, la, la
[Verse 3]
Em D6/9
After nine days I let the horse run free
Em D6/9
'Cause the desert had turned to sea
Em D6/9
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
Em D6/9
There were sand and hills and rings
Em D6/9
The ocean is a desert with its life underground
Em D6/9
And a perfect disguise above
Em D6/9
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
Em D6/9
But the humans will give no love
[Chorus]

You see, I've been through the desert on a horse with no name

I spy, tears in their eyes
They look to the skies for some kind of divine
intervention, food goes to waste
So nice to eat, so nice to taste

Have you no idea how the Majity feels
So without love and a promised land
We're fools to the rules of the government plan
Kick out the style, bring back the jam

F C G
Some nights I call it a draw.
C F C
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle.
F C G
Some nights I wish they'd just fall off
F C F C
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost.
F C G
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh.
F C F C
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Am G (F C F C F C G x2)
Most nights, I don't know anymore
F C
This is it, boys. This is war.
F C
What are we waiting for?
F C G
Why don't we break the rules already?
F C
I was never one to believe the hype.
F C
Save that for the black and white.
F C
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked,
G
But here they come again to jack my style
F - C
And that's alright
F C
I found a martyr in my bed tonight.
F C
She stops my bones from wondering
G F - C
Just who I am, who I am, who I am.
F - C F - C G
Yeah, oh who am I mmmm mmmmm
F C F C
Some nights I wish that this all would end
F C G
'Cause I could use some friends for a change.
F C F C
And some nights I'm scared you'll forget me again.
F C G
Some nights, I always win (I always win)
F C F C
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost.
F C G
Oh Lord, I still don't know what I stand for, oh.
F C F C
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Am G
Most nights, I don't know
F C
So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
G
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?
F C
No. When I see stars, when i see stars, that's all they are.
G
When I hear songs, they sound like a swan.
F C G
So come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on. Oh, come on!
F C
That is it, guys, that is all.
F C
Five minutes in and I'm bored again.
F C G
Ten years of this, and I'm not sure if anybody understands.
F C
This is not one for the folks back home.
F C
I'm sorry to leave, Mom, I had to go.
F C G
Who the fuck wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?
F
My heart is breaking for my sister
C
And the con that she called love.
G
But when I look into my nephew's eyes,
F
Man, you wouldn't believe
C G
The most amazing things that can come from.
(F C F C F C G x4 and through ending)
Some terrible nights.
ie)
F C F C
The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
F C G
I called you up, but we'd both agree
F C F C
It's for the best you didn't listen
F C G
It's for the best we get our distance.
take it home! F C F C F C G

We're all right where we should be
Lift my arms out wide I open my eyes

Is a sky full of lighters

By the time you hear this I will have already spiraled up
I would never do nothing to let you cowards fuck my world up
If I was you, I would duck, or get struck like lightening,
Fighters keep fighting, put your lighters up, point em' skyward uh
Had a dream I was king, I woke up, still king...
This rap game's nipple is mine for the milking,
Till nobody else even fucking feels me, till' it kills me
I swear to god I'll be the fucking illest in this music
There is or there ever will be, disagree?
Feel free, but from now on I'm refusing to ever give up
The only thing I ever gave's using no more excuses
Excuse me if my head is too big for this building
And pardon me if I'm a cocky prick but you cocks are slick
Poppin shit on how you flipped ya life around, crock-o-shit
Who you dicks try to kid, flipped dick, you did the opposite
You stayed the same, cause cock backwards is still cock you pricks
I love it when I tell em shove it
Cause it wasn't that long ago when Marshall sat, luster lacked, lustered
Cuz he couldn't cut mustard, muster up nothing
Brain fuzzy, cause he's buzzin', woke up from that buzz
Now you wonder why he does it, how he does it
Wasn't cause he had buzzards circle around his head
Waiting for him to drop dead, was it?
Or was it, cause them es wrote him off
Little hussy ass, cause f-ck it, guess it doesn't matter now, does it
What difference it make?
What it take to get it through your thick skulls
As if this aint some bullshit
People don't usually come back this way
From a place that was dark as I was in
Just to get to this place
Now let these words be like a switch blade to a haters rib cage
And let it be known from this day forward
I wanna just say thanks cause your hate is what gave me the strength
So let em bic's raise cause I came with 5'9′ but I feel like I'm
6'8″

[Royce Da 5'9]
By the time you hear this I'll probably already be outtie
I advance like going from toting iron to going and buying 4 or 5 of the
Homies the iron man Audi
My daddy told me slow down, boy, you goin to blow it
And I aint gotta stop the beat a minute
To tell Shady I love him the same way that he did Dr Dre on the Chronic
Tell him how real he is or how high I am
Or how I would kill for him for him to know it
I cried plenty tears, my daddy got a bad back
So it's only right that I right till he can march right into that post
Office and tell em to hang it up
Now his career's Lebron's jersey in 20 years
I'll stop when I'm at the very top
You shitted on me on your way up
It's 'bout to be a scary drop
Cause what goes up must come down
You going down on something you don't wanna see like a hairy box
Every hour, happy hour now
Life is wacky now
Used to have to eat the cat to get the pussy
Now I'm just the cats meooww, ow
Classic cow, always down for the catch weight like Pacquiao
Ya'll are doomed
I remember when T-Pain aint wanna work with me
My car starts itself, parks itself and autotunes
Cause now I'm in the Aston
I went from having my city locked up
To getting treated like Kwame Kilpatrick
And now I'm fantastic
Compared to a weed high
And y'all s just gossipin' like es on a radio and TV
See me, we fly
Y'all buggin out like Wendy Williams staring at a bee-hive
And how real is that
I remember signing my first deal and now I'm the second best I can deal
With that
Now Bruno can show his ass, without the MTV awards gag
